Our bodies crave salt. Along with water, salt is one of the fundamental building blocks of human life.
Yet, increasingly, media experts and health professionals are demonizing its purpose and hailing it as a catalyst for increased blood pressure and other health concerns.
However, the basic truth is; we cannot survive without salt. Salt aids in both the creation and sustenance of life.
If our bodies need salt for survival, then why does the government actively campaign against it? The key is to define the edible salt and analyze its makeup.
Salt is different and can take on many forms. The handling of salt and the way it is processed determines its positive/negative societal health value. The common table salt consumed in the U.S.
is processed salt containing just two elements-Sodium and Chloride. Himalayan salt, which is widely misrepresented, contains 84 essential elements in its unaltered, pristine form.
The 84 elements parallel the composition of our bodies and aids in replenishing the day-to-day element deficiencies.
Himalayan crystal salt can be used in a variety of ways. It can take the form of a salt lamp, permeating the air with negative ions, used in conjunction with cooking or taken as sole (a 1% salt/water solution).
The uses are endless and Peter Ferria, in his book Water and Salt, suggests the rediscovery of salt in society will be the biggest health discovery of the century.

Salt Lamp Ionization: How does it work?
In every salt lamp ionizing equation, three principles are at work.
Scientifically explained, they are ionization, electronic oscillation and light waves.
Salt Lamps and Ionization: global laboratory studies demonstrate the primary emission of ions into the air is measured by the crystal rock salt lamps ability to absorb water molecules in the air and release them in the form of evaporation.
In greater detail, the elemental salt lamp structure is composed of Sodium and Chloride.
As water molecules, an H2O elemental combination, attract to the lamp surface, the lamp absorbs one hydrogen and one oxygen molecule and then releases the remaining positively charged hydrogen molecule back into the air.
The lone positive molecule seeks a negative molecule and neutralizes it, thus cleaning and purifying the air.
Salt Lamps and Electronic Oscillation: the earth is encompassed in an electromagnetic belt and within this belt, every life form resonates at 7.83 Hz (cycles) per second.
The resonate frequency value is said to be at the point where our electromagnetic frequency harmonizes with the electromagnetic belt of the earth.
However, these frequencies are thrust into a state of imbalance as more and more electronic devices, with artificial frequencies enter into our lives.
The frequencies produced by these machines have been proven to promote illness and disrupt the natural balance of our cells.
Crystal salt lamps, in its neutral state, exhibit the same natural electromagnetic frequency as our bodies require and serve to adjust and neutralize artificial electronic devices.
Salt Lamps and Light Waves: light waves take the form of electromagnetic wavelengths, or oscillation energies and are visible to the eye at a nanometer level.
Based on the theory of color therapy, which claims to balance energy wherever our bodies are lacking, our bodies need electromagnetic wavelengths to supply us with new energy. Thus cells require light waves whenever energy is lost and needs to be restored.
For several years, the medical community has been harnessing the power of irradiation with monochromatic light, which uses color vibration to target cell-producing functions. Many believe salt crystalline structures, or salt lamps; can be utilized for natural irradiation therapy.
However, further investigation and research needs to be performed before proving its absolute scientific value.

A Crystalline Comparison of Salt
Take your pick: Himalayan Crystal Salt, common table salt, or sea salt? The naked eye tells us salt looks the same from any angle; the only difference being size and color.
However, under the watchful eye of a microscope, the crystalline salt structure and its inequities come alive. Magnify by 100x and patterns start to emerge. Common Table Salt contains unnatural and dead isolated crystals,
while Himalayan Salt Crystal remains fully connected to other crystalline structures.
Further evidence verifies the body must sacrifice a considerable amount of energy to process sea salt and exert even more energy to absorb table salt.
With 84 trace elements, Himalayan crystal salt is easily metabolized by the body and when taken as food, provides a veritable energizing effect.

A Taste for Salt in the History of Medicine
Salt users have spanned generations. From the ancient Egyptians to the 18th century alchemists,
salt has been a prominent and renown resource for civilizations around the world. Life without it is unimaginable.
Many of the common diseases and epidemics throughout time can be attributed to salt deficiencies of the body.
Crystal salt for thousands of years has been used for treatments, cures and preventive care.
Whether applied topically or taken internally, rock salt has left its mark in history.
Explore the history of salt as Science Tribune writer Eberhard J. Wormer examines the medicinal properties of salt throughout history.
Used in Greek medicine, Roman foods and Renaissance treatments,
Wormer explains salt from a historical standpoint and addresses its many applications, from its roots to modern day.
